Headlight Bulb Replacement

It is necessary to remove the headlight from
the headlight bowl to gain access to the
bulbs.
Warning
The bulbs become hot during use. Always
allow sufficient time for the bulbs to cool
before handling. Avoid touching the glass
part of the bulb. If the glass is touched or
gets dirty, clean with alcohol before re-use.
Remove the front seat.
Disconnect the battery, negative (black) lead
first.
Undo the fixings securing the headlight
clamp to the headlight body.
Support the headlight while removing the
clamp.
Remove the headlight from its bowl while
supporting it to prevent the cables from
being over extended.
